The Other Side--May 13

Under every "reality" is a world we see only through the eyes of our imagination. Those close to the edges of life see this world most clearly. Some, like the children, are at the start of their journey. Others are at the finish. Those in the middle are the most blind. Their eyes are sealed shut by concerns that leave little room for the imagination to grow and flourish. Except for the artists. Words and dance, paint and photographs, music and rhythms unseal their eyes, allowing artists see the Other Side of reality, the only side that makes any sense at all.

Beautiful, full of poetry, asking our soul to dance along as their bodies swirl. Both of this earth and elsewhere, that where the Spirit reigns, supreme!

I wish I could go back see life through the eyes of a child.
Just image the wonder of seeing something for the first time,

For them images like this may be as real as the fingers on their hands
